BACKGROUND

 

The Quarterly Treasurer’s Report contains financial portfolio performance with respect to the Orange County Sanitation District’s (Sanitation District) funds.  Both Long-Term and Liquid Operating Monies Portfolios are summarized.  A performance summary table can be found on page 2 of this section.  The report also contains information on the U.S. and global economic outlook from the Sanitation District’s investment manager, Chandler Asset Management.

 

Quarterly Treasurer’s Reports are customarily presented first to the Administration Committee prior to being placed on the Board agenda.  However, as the Administration Committee is not scheduled in August, the Sanitation District’s practice has been to present the Fourth Quarter Treasurer’s Report directly to the Board.
